Hanhart's syndrome with special reference to temporal bone findings.

We report two cases of Hanhart's syndrome. The first patient was a male who died in the neonatal period, and whose temporal bones were removed, processed, and histologically examined; the findings are presented in this article. The second case concerns a living patient with the typical characteristics of the syndrome. An attempt is made to show that a gross first and second branchial arch anomaly exists in this syndrome and not just the micrognathia that is obvious to the onlooker. Possible causes and classifications of facial dysmorphia are discussed.

[Neurosurgery in strict asepsis. First trials in an operation isolator during the placement of 10 ventriculoperitoneal derivations].

Authors report on a series of ten ventricular-cardiac or peritoneal derivations performed under operative field isolation, air-tight and sterile enclosure that makes possible to perform surgery under strict aspsis. The first results compared with those mentioned in the medical literature, let foresee a fall in the occurence of post-operative infections. The technique is adaptable to neurosurgery and does not complicate the operative process.

[Human cysticercosis. Four cases (First part) (author's transl)].

Produced by the larval form of Taenia solium, human cysticercosis is especially redoutable because of its great affinity for the nervous system and the eyes. In France, the isolated cases, apparently autochtons, are very seldom; cysticercosis is discovered, more frequently, among immigrated people. After an historical recall, the authors describe the lesions and, among clinical manifestations, the epileptogenic, ventricular and diffuse cerebral forms.

[Human cysticercosis. Four cases. (second part) (author's transl)].

Beside the principal aspects of cysticercosis (see the first part of this article) there are others clinical forms : medullar, ocular, subcutaneous, often associated to cerebral cysticercosis, latent or not. The complemental investigations are numerous, their value is variable. The complemental investigations are numerous, their value is variable. It is often difficult to distinguish cysticercosis from cenurosis. Therapy remains deceitful. Very important and useful are the measures of prevention.
